Wilson Chandler

The Denver Nuggets have an absolute logjam at the power forward position and could very well be looking to make changes sooner rather than later. Wilson Chandler has been mentioned in a number of trade rumors already and as a free agent next summer could be looking for a new opportunity. If such turns out to be the case, the Jazz would do well to give him a call.

Chandler is a hybrid forward who can play both the three and the four, and along with being a versatile, Swiss Army Knife kind of player, he also brings hustle and energy night in and night out. Last season, he put up an impressive stat line of 15.7 points and 6.5 rebounds. His career shooting numbers leave something to be desired, but he has several solid traits, including tough defense, that should translate over well into the Jazz system.
